First, thanks to my wife. She has provided me immeasurable support throughout this project. The technical editor, Chris Crayton, provided some great feedback on each of the chapters and the online labs. If you have the paperback copy of the book in your hand, you’re enjoying some excellent composite editing work done by Susan Veach.  \nI’m extremely grateful for all the effort Karen Annett put into this project. She’s an awesome copy editor and proofer and the book is tremendously better due to all the work she’s put into it. Last, thanks to my assistant Jaena Nerona who helped with many of the details behind the scenes. She helped me with some quality control and project management.  \nMore, she managed  \nmost of the daily tasks associated with maintaining online web sites.  \nWhile I certainly appreciate all the feedback everyone gave me, I want to stress that any errors that may have snuck into this book are entirely my fault and no reflection on anyone who helped. I always strive to identify and remove every error, but they still seem to sneak in.  \nSpecial thanks to:  \n• Chief Wiggum for bollards installation.  \n• Nelson Muntz for personal physical security services.  \n• Martin Prince for educating us about downgrade attacks.  \n• Comp-Global-Hyper-Mega-Net for intermittent [HTTP services](HTTP services).  \n• Edna Krabapple for her thoughtful continuing education lessons.  \n• Apu Nahasapeemapetilon for technical advice on secure coding concepts.  \n• Moe Szyslak for refreshments and uplifting our spirits with his talks about RATs.  \nAbout the Author  \nDarril Gibson is the CEO of YCDA, LLC (short for You Can Do Anything) .
